Constraints¶
To use HStore tables, use the following parameter settings, or the performance of HStore tables will deteriorate significantly:
autovacuum_max_workers_hstore=3, autovacuum_max_workers=6, and autovacuum=true
Currently, HStore and column storage do not support the use of VACUUM to clear dirty index data, and frequent updates may cause index bloat. This function will be supported in later versions.
